Part 10
*******
Past:
"This is my room, I am not going anywhere" and though while they fight, Geet's words were more mature than Maan but he made sure he was not leaving his room for this girl who was trying to show him his class.
Next morning Maan knocked the door of her room, she opened it. Maan could not believe at the elegant beauty in front of him in her beautiful night gown. He just forgot for a moment, what he was there for.
"Everyone likes diamond but everyone doesn't deserve it, so stop gaping at me and come to point." Her harsh words broke his trance.
"I just came to tell you whatever we decide but my parents" "We not, I have decided and yes can you give me those bangles."
"Why you have decided, I got married to you too" he sounded like complain, but never had he had any serious discussion like this with anyone. He believed in a cool peaceful life.
"Ok I will say we have decided, fine now. Now where are those bangles"
"You threw those bangles, it has hurt me most. They were my mothers, at least you could have given it little respect" without waiting for him she went to his room and got the bangles that were placed on the table.
She was so fast Maan just kept looking at her. She went inside her room and him after her
Before he could say anything "Out, I need to change" and she stopped him at the door. Maan didn't know how to get into this kind of fight that too with a woman.
She closed the door at his face "Itna Ghamand, I will not let her do what ever she wish. She has to discuss with me before doing anything, it's about our relation after all. She has to talk with me, only if she talks things will be clear."
He was standing outside, not ready to give her chance of doing anything silly. His eyes went downstairs on his MOM.
What will Maa think he was doing outside on first morning?
Geet came and before Maan could say anything she held his wrist to take him down but Maan got lost in the touch. Her soft hands were touching his. He was angry with her but still not over her. How could he, as he had madly fallen for his Mishty.
And his trance broke when she jerked his hand away and he found he was already down stairs standing in front of his parents.
His mother got shocked seeing how Geet had pulled Maan…
"Did this boy do something stupid with her. Why is she so angry? " his mother and father both got worried while Maan could only think
"Ohh no, she brought us in front of Maa Bauji. She had to talk to me first. Maa bauji, I would have explained them in my way"
"Geet, let's go upstairs now. We should not disturb them. Maa need to do her puja at this hour. We will be back after an hour" But Geet would listen to Maan, no way. How can he even think of calling her name but she had no option.
Ohh ..how typical a middle class man he was.
"Listen, I am here to talk something important, will you let me"
Maan felt insulted, his wife was talking to him this way in front of his parents but for Geet he almost did not exist and she have to fix her situation. She has been thinking all night and reached to a conclusion and now this man, he have guts to interfere.
She forwarded towards his shocked parents and handed the bangles to his mother.
"Don't mind but actually have so many matching with my all dresses, this one will not fit any and I don't want to loose it by keeping it anywhere so I think it is better you keep it safe, Aunty."
Geet was known among her friend circle for her pride, arrogance and dominating attitude. She was also very blunt in her words. She knew she has power and she made people realize it.
"Aunty? Beta Maa hoon main tumharee abb" but she sensed something not good.
His father did not like the way she was behaving but knowing it will take sometime to adjust her to this middle class environment, he kept quiet.
"I am sorry Aunty but I do not believe in this marriage. It was a big mistake. This all relation is meanignless" his mother held her dupatta near her mouth in shock. Maan held his mother.
"Maa I will explain everything in deatil" Maan held Geet by her wrist and took her to her room
"Say to me whatever you want to say, I will convey them. Your money does not give you right to hurt my parents. I am here in front of you, tell me whatever you want. I will take it but don't hurt my parents"
"How dare you behave this way to me, I am Geet Handa and you have no idea with whom you are dealing man"
They had a long argument, Geet was getting angrier and angrier as how did Maan had guts to argue with her, he definitely needs a lesson but Maan only wanted to stop her from hurting his parents.
Listening to arguments his parents came up. "Maan, quiet, is this how you behave with you wife." "but bauji maine to kuch"
"I don't want to listen anything Maan, you have to remember your culture. She is not from this environment you have to understand"
Well, Geet was just waiting for chance like this.
"Sorry uncle if I have upset you." He did not like uncle but said nothing "it's Ok beta, did you have any problem at night"
"I am OK, but can I have some words with you both, he doesn't seem to understand"
"From when I am asking her" "Maan" his Bauji stopped him in middle. Yes, Bauji, Maan knew he was the first person to believe that any mistake done will be of Maan. He considered Maan the most impractical person in whole world and according to him, this unpractical behavior was the cause of Geet's anger.
Present
********
Present Geet had drifted in sleep on office desk, thinking of their first night and first morning.
It was Siren in the office which woke her up and she found Shasha standing in front of her with folded hand.
"This is your first morning in office and you have planned to wake up in office itself" Shasha taunted.
"ohh my first morning with Maan.. kuch to hona hee tha…Damn with the company policy" Geet murmured but by that time Maan zoomed in her office and she immediately got up, she was in complete mess.
Shasha left.
"Geet is the project work ready? " "yes sir.. yesterday night actually.." "Ok, then we have meeting with client in an hour, I want you there with all details" he cut her in the middle. He was too busy to listen anyone's any story.
"What, I have to be in the meeting, that to in an hour.. sir but"
He was leaving without listening her when he realized she was still in same dress that too so messed up. Is this Geet Handa!!!
"well, I think Handa construction may not be running well, but you have only one dress, I am surprised." He taunted.
"Only if you listen to me" But Maan at morning hours had no time to listen to anyone and Geet would be the last one. "Go get descent and come to meeting at 9:30. Khurana enterprise have it's reputation, keep upto it." And he left.
Geet was all confused with her situation, she saw Maan elegantly discussing something with someone in his complete business like formal attire. And the she saw herself with pouted lips.
"He is hell bound not to listen. Now I have to reach there in 1 hour and get my dress too and get decent. How is all that going to work."
"But Geet you have to do. He is just looking for a chance to throw you out."
She ran to the lift and then took taxi, she could not use her car- anyone could doubt seeing her elegant vehical.
Everything seemed slow… time was just passing by.
"Ohh god, meeting with client. If anyone recognizes me then.. Levae Geet, you don't have time to think this"
She fixed herself in the washroom, took the file and almost rushed to the meeting room. Ohh it was so tough to locate the meeting room in this big office. No doubt, Khurana office was way beyond larger than HC main office.
First day of office , how is she supposed to know everything. But it was Maan Singh Khurana's office where work have to be done, how , you have to figure out.
